    Tried to rework a previous image. Lots of tweaking, radial blur, distort and twirl, NIK Glamour Glow, and to get the swirl I used Fractalius Neon Glow on a separate layer using Linear Dodge.
    Comments Appreciated. Thanks!

    Jackie, I love the feeling of movement that this has. It looks a little dark on my monitor - will be interested to see what others have to say. I love the swirly thing around the stem :)
    Best,

    Jackie, The swirl is genius! I love the effect. Not sure why but I keep thinking a tiny bit off the right side. It doesn't look too dark to me.:)Lovely image!!!

    Fantastic image, Jackie! I love everything about it, the colors, the sense of motion, and especially the swirl around the stem. Excellent work! :)

    Thanks for the comments everyone. It sort of reminds me of an Iris coming out of a vortex. I think the swirl adds to the sense of movement. Fun image to create.
